    A few weeks ago, Joe Farewell and Myles created a video helping iron sight shooters switch to a red dot pistol.
    Today, Myles shares an exercise with 4 variations that will help you track and see your red dot while transitioning from target to target and while moving. These are other instances where many beginners lose sight of their red dots.
    *Myles mentions you should look at your dot in the video. To clarify, you should be target focused and be aware of where your red dot is.

    After 13 years I’m finally getting into competition shooting and I extremely appreciate your Sunday videos! The breakdown and the delivery of the information is 100000! Had my first official class yesterday. I’ve been in the industry for about 8-9 years but have always handled firearms. It’s just now time to advance

    I've found that if you look where you think the front sight would be, usually the dot will be right there. Assuming you're dot is zeroed that is lol.

    Red dots are a real learning curve.
    It was probably 5000 rounds before i was even close to open sight speed inside of 15 yards. Once you get the hang of it they work pretty good.

      The question is if you would of used one more or less round to strengthen a skill that could possibly save your, your families, or someone else's family members life...I would always say yes it's worth it...proficiency does not cone from spewing a couple hundred rounds every couple of years..but if that's all you can put forth then yes it's worth it ...cause it could be the more or less that makes the difference...🇺🇲

      But it took awhile to get the hang of it. The good news is it forced me to become more consistent with my draw and presentation.

    I have the mantis laser academy. I sometimes practice with my red dot off. I draw and shoot seeing where on the target the laser marks. I've found that this helps me be on target more consistently. Then when I draw with the dot on, I'm already very close.

    Excellent video maybe I missed it but Myles you forgot to emphasize focus on target at all times and not red dot. I find keeping eye on red dot slows you down

    • @politicallyinsensitive4200

      Are you talking basic formulas? It depends on your reticle. I only know the math for mils. There's a standard conversion of 25.4 if you want your answer (the distance) in meters or 27.78 if you want it in yards.
      First get the size of your target in inches; let's say you're shooting at a 12" gong. Multiply that by the standard you want- I'll use 27.78; (12x27.78=333.36).
      Next divide that by the height of mils in your reticle. Say 0.7; (333.36/.7=476.23)
      Your target is roughly (assuming you measured mils correctly) 476 yards away. Not super long range but the example serves its purpose.
      You would then either dial your elevation turret or hold over the needed amount in your optic.
